摘要:

The first case of adenocarcinoma of the transverse colon and splenic flexture during pregnancy associated with ulcerative colitis is reported. The patient presented with perforation and widespread melastatic disease. After 10 years' duration of symptoms of ulcerative colitis, the risk of coexisting cancer of the colon is 3 to 5% each year. As ulcerative colitis frequently coexists with pregnancy, the obstetrician needs to be alert to the potential for malignant changes in these patients. With the addition of this patient, there are now 18 reported cases of cancer of the colon during pregnancy. These 18 cases are reviewed especially as to management, outcome of the pregnancy, and prognosis.

摘要:

The standard Weiss epidural needle is well known to many obstetricians. Its principles advantage is easy manipulation, especially with the “hanging drop” sign. Among its disadvantages are the sharp Huber point, the difficulty of keeping the point in the midline using the conventional technic, and the possibility of dural puncture when the needle must be rotated. The modified needle overcomes these objections because the point is blunt and the elliptical flange soldered to the hub is rotated 90° about the shaft. The resulting instrument is easier to use and is associated with a very low incidence of accidential dural puncture.

摘要:

This is a selective survey of recent publications dealing with theoretical and established applications of steroid hormone radioimmunoassay procedures applied to clinical obstetric investigation. This subject is reviewed in three sections: first, basic principles of steroid hormone radioimmunoassay methodology; second, steroidogenesis in normal pregnancy and its relation to patterns of steroid hormones measured in maternal and fetal circulations; third, applied steroid radioimmunoassay technology as it is being used in established and potential clinical applications. It is concluded that steroid hormone radioimmunoassay procedures have been and will continue to be a highly productive technology applied to clinical obstetric investigation.
